Staunton Wins PFA Award

Yeovil Town skipper Josh Staunton has been awarded a Community Champion award by the Professional Footballers Association.

The award, for the 2023/23 season recognises those who have made a difference in their communities.

Staunton was heavily involved in the battle against the National League’s contract changes and led the division’s captains in working with the League to resolve the issue.

He fronted up to supporters during a difficult season and lead the club’s acknowledgement and apology following relegation and has been a constant presence in the local, Glovers’ community.

He said on twitter that he was ‘proud and honoured’ to have been given the award.

All that whilst tending to his new lawn… sorry  child. His new child!

Congratulations, Captain.

I’m very proud and honoured to have received the @PFA Community Award. After last year it’s a nice reminder that even when things aren’t going well on the pitch, you still have the ability to try to make a difference and spread some happiness off it! ? @YTFC pic.twitter.com/qUqMr1Or4j
